Hünkâr SofasI; one of the most beautiful sections of Topkapi Palace in Istanbul, Türkiye 🇹🇷 It was positioned centrally between Sultan Ill. Murad's Chamber and baths, it was constructed by Chief Architect Davud Aa after 1585 CE, and has undergone changes through fires and repairs to reach us today. It served as the ceremonial and reception hall for the sultans, hosting the dynasty's wedding and birth ceremonies, as wel as the reception of congratulations from Harem residents on ceremonies and holidays. Hünkâr Sofasl, the palace's largest domed space, featuresa canopy where the sultan's throne is placed and a gallery where women, including Valide Sultan, would sit. The upper floor of the gallery was used by concubines and musicians. An adjoining room on the left side of the main entrance was later divided into a salon, likely used as a pantry. Iznik tile inscription belt dates to after 1665 fire, while blue-and-white Dutch (Delft) tiles and rococo decoration belong to mid-18th Century CE, during reign of Sultan Il. Osman. Dome, arches and pendentives still showcase penwork decorations from structure's initial construction period. Wooden arcade arches and windows follow baroque style. Inscriptions on doors and windows praise Sultan IlII. Osman and detail repairs undertaken during his reign. Harem was the private palace of Sultan and his family, and was controlled by Queen Mother (Valide Sultan). Like in Indian palaces, Topkapi Palace had multiple throne rooms and one here was for private audience. It was built in 16th Century CE, burnt down in fire of 1666 CE, and rebuilt immediately after that. The side gallery, where the family sat, is an example of this. Delft tiles and the Venetian mirror above was added in 18th Century CE. The gilded sofa was a present from Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany. Central dome of the room is supposed to be the largest in the palace complex. In this view you can see the incredibly ornamental interior of the dome. This is original, from the rococo style redecoration of sultan Osman III, executed immediately after the fire. This is a room which reflects the aesthetics of the whole palace: a single look cannot encompass it, you really have to examine the details. Topkapı Palace was not only the residence of Ottoman sultans, but also the administrative and educational centre of the state. Initially constructed between 1460-1478 CE, by Sultan Mehmed II, conqueror of Constantinople, and expanded upon and altered many times throughout its long history, palace served as the home of Ottoman sultans and their court until middle of 19th Century CE. In early 1850s, palace became inadequate to requirements of state ceremonies and protocol, and so sultans moved to Dolmabahçe Palace, located on Bosphorus. But despite this move, royal treasure, Holy Relics of the Prophet Muhammad and imperial archives continued to be preserved at Topkapı and since palace was ancestral residence of Ottoman dynasty as well as place where the Holy Relics were preserved, Topkapı continued to play host to certain state ceremonies. Following abolishment of Ottoman monarchy in 1922, Topkapı Palace was converted into a museum on 3 April 1924, on the order of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. 🎥© arkeolojievreni #archaeohistories
